While Bengals head coach Zac Taylor told reporters on Wednesday that defensive end Shemar Stewart was more uncertain to play in Sunday's season opener than receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, the injury report indicates more optimism.
Chase, Higgins, and Stewart were all listed as full participants in Wednesday's session.
Chase has a knee injury while Higgins has been dealing with a foot injury.
Stewart has a knee injury.
That all three were full participants is a positive indication for their potential availability on Sunday — though things could certainly change over the next few days.
The Bengals will host the Buccaneers to open the season on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
